Unique General Skin

[random_samurai]

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, it is possible to use any unit skin as a general skin on the battle map. If I were to follow the example of william wallace in the campaign script:

character William Wallace, named character, age 20, x 53, y 250, direction SE, battle_model Wallace_General, portrait wallace

then i could create a general with any skin in descr_strat right? ex:

character random_name, named character, age 20, x 53, y 250, direction SE, battle_model knights_hospitaller, portrait wallace

or do i have to copy the wallace_general entry in modeldb as a template, create a new entry, and edit it from there? Any help is welcomed

part 2:

add "battle_model william_wallace2" to the english charecter of choice in either the descr_strat or as a spawning general in campaign_script



DONE

[random_samurai]

thanks, knew that, i was talking more about making a specific unit (in this case not wallace) the general, ie: a knight of antioch, which i accomplished, except he has no sword (still using the attachment set I copied from northern_general)
